SnapSTAT - The ANZ Truckometer

Friday 13 Mar 2026


As 2026 has started with uncertainty over business growth, we thought you’d like to see an example of a solid GDP leading indicator.

The ANZ Truckometer is a New Zealand-based economic indicator that uses real-time traffic data from 20-30 state highway sites to measure traffic flows, providing a rapid, high-frequency snapshot of economic activity. It consists of two main indices: the Heavy Traffic Index, which correlates strongly with current GDP (real-time production), and the Light Traffic Index, which acts as a leading indicator, providing a roughly six-month head start on GDP trends.
